So I have this idea of trying to smoke a prime rib.
Its on sale right now for like $7/lb so a $9/lb savings.
I know it is supposed to be an amazing cut but I am not a fan of the medium rare parts of the cut. Was considering leaving it on longer to get it up closer to medium. Medium rate is 130 - 140 internal temp and medium is 140 - 150. Was considering maybe cook to 143-145 but still afraid it might ruin the meat and dry it out.
Thoughts?
Also questions for the prep. How much fat to slice off ahead of time? Should I brine it?
Have not decided on a rub but we will figure that out. We have hundreds of bottles to mix up a rub.
